I think warranty is international and provided by Samsung so shouldn't matter?

Darn it, why did I assume it would be international :facepalm:

So best place to buy in NZ? I'm with Spark but would rather not have the crappy boot animation. I see PBTech have some sweet packages - are they the 2degrees model?

Yeah same for me, I think that is just their order process, pretty poor that they cant even send out an email though.

It appears that once again we're seeing the definition of technologies being butchered by sales folk and carriers. There was a rumour that Samsung had shown off a 5G prototype at the WMC but that is all I can find regarding Samsung and their movement into the world of 5G handsets.

Come again? Where did this guy get this info?

If so, it would mean a software update to unleash the hardware.

Spark are shipping preorders tomorrow as well. I assume retailrs like JB don't get stock till release so ship then.
